Library Thursdays: Resources in languages other than English

In multicultural Australia, there is a need for resources in various languages. The library has a wide variety of resources in languages other than English. Resources in Arabic, Chinese and Vietnamese are the most plentiful as they are the most commonly non-English languages used in NSW. They can be accessed here.
In addition we have limited resources in Japanese, Korean, Finnish, Hindi, Urdu, German, Dari, and others. We also have a range of journals from other countries.
Contact if you have a need for information in a language other than English and we will try to provide you with information.

Down Syndrome Education International also has some resources in Spanish and Norwegian and are keen to work with other organisations to provide more translations.

MDAA (Multicultural Disability Advocacy Association) also provides some resources on disability in general in various languages.

If you are interested in borrowing any of the non-English materials or would like to borrow anything else, just email or phone.
